Resolution

1.Log in as non-SecurID challenge administrative user. If you can log in locally on to appliance using RSALocalAdmin account, you can skip to step 3.

Note: Appliance is shipped with only one local account. RSALocalAdmin is a local account and this account does not have the appropriate group membership to login via RDP. a. You can add RSALocalAdmin user to a remote users. So that using RSALocalAdmin account, you can login via RDP. OR b. You can create another local admin account on Appliance machine ( computer management) and give that new account group membership of remote users, to give the ability of logging via RDP. 2. Disable SecurID challenge in RSA Security Center. 3. RSA control Panel ? > Stop all services. Close the RSA Control panel. 4. Administrative tools ---> services ? > Make all RSA services manual.
